East Central ISD board sends voters a $240 million bond proposal — bigger than the one that failed last year
and fresh from a dismal state academic rating, East Central Independent School District will again ask voters in November to approve new bond debt because rapid subdivision development will soon crowd more of its schools if it doesn’t build new ones, officials said.
If the bond election succeeds, the first new elementary school would be built in about two years, when Tradition Elementary is projected to be at least 350 students over capacity, Toscano said. Oak Crest also has portables — her daughter was in one last year — so Benker saw the difficulty firsthand. The rapid subdivision growth means the value of property in the district will increase enough to reduce the expected tax rate increase required to pay off the bonds, officials said. The value of property in East Central increased 27 percent in the past year, Toscano said.
